Description
Vortex – Advanced Take Apart Puzzle
Vortex is a cast-metal take-apart puzzle designed by Akio Yamamoto and produced by Hanayama. Three spiral-shaped pieces join into a surprisingly flat arrangement.
Separate the intertwined pieces, then reconstruct the starting shape. Although the assembled puzzle looks flat, understanding the entanglement requires thinking about how its parts relate in three dimensions.
